🇮🇳👩🏾‍🦰🥊 The International Boxing Association's (IBA) women's world boxing championships is due to be hosted in India again.

In early April 2023, New Delhi will be the venue for the elite tournament - a role it has performed twice before, in 2006 and 2018.

The final dates of the competition have yet to be agreed and will be revealed by Umar Kremlev, the IBA's president.

Interestingly, India has never hosted the men's world boxing championship having lost the hosting rights because it refused to pay the necessary fee in 2021 after which the IBA canceled all previous agreements.

But India is determined to make the most of this opportunity and it is thought that the competition will take place at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. This year at the IBA's women's tournament in Turkey, India won three medals, including gold for 26-year-old Nikhat Zareen in the flyweight category.

🤔 The “NATO is not a party” in Ukraine talking point has been repeated ad nauseam over the past eight months, with Moscow catching the military bloc tripping up in its own lies last month after Mr. Stoltenberg warned that a Russian victory in Ukraine would constitute a “defeat” for NATO that would “make the world more dangerous.”
